EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a group of French women standing proudly on the deck of the USS Recruit, a wooden mockup battleship built in Union Square, New York City during World War I. The women are dressed elegantly, exuding confidence and determination as they support the war effort by recruiting seamen and selling Liberty Bonds.
The image is filled with symbolism and patriotism, with the American flag waving proudly in the background. The French women's presence on board the ship serves as a powerful reminder of the international cooperation and solidarity that was crucial during this tumultuous time in history.
The photograph beautifully captures the essence of this moment in time, showcasing not only the physical representation of naval warfare but also highlighting the important role that women played in supporting their country during wartime.
As we look at this image today, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by those who came before us and inspired by their resilience and strength. It serves as a poignant reminder of our shared history and collective responsibility to honor those who have fought for freedom and justice.
